Re: [EVDL] need new home ESVE
I looked at open EVSE and the "advanced series" looks like a great product. But it costs more and doesn't have the right plug. The latter is a minor thing, but if I don't have to change out an outlet, with tight wiring, I'll be happier :) I'll take a look at the product details again and see if there are any compelling features.

Re: [EVDL] EVLN: Vroom, vroom oops
I'm not surprised. The question is how many years will people want these effects. People resist change, or at least take time to adapt. But those who grow up with the "new way" don't need to change and probably could care less about the transitional elements.

But maybe that's just the author's opinion? All ICEs with automatic transmissions still have "gearshift" levers. They are used for forward/reverse of course; but also to select various "performance" or "economy" modes of operation. People seem to expect them, and enjoy using them. My EV conversions all had manual transmissions -- left over from when they were ICEs. The transmission made it easy to select between low, medium, and high-speed ranges. It was also a way to optimize performance and efficiency without a complicated or expensive motor or controller. My Leaf EV has a "gear shift". It's just a switch that selects between forward/reverse, and normal/enhanced braking. It certainly has utility as an operating control, and gets used. So the "gearshift" lever may no longer actually shift gears, but it's a familiar control that will just get re-purposed for other uses. Lee -- Whatever the problem, be part of the solution.
